Quotes

...Challenge those who say that things can't change, that the old ways are here to stay," Sweeney said. "Dare to create change for the better - and not just for your own benefit, but for the greater good of your community. Don't settle!"
...Nearly 20 years ago, U S Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said that if she had been able to muster the votes, her 1994 "assault weapon ban would not have merely prohibited various guns from being made with pistol grips, folding stocks and flash suppressors, but would have required a far harsher outcome; as Sen. Feinstein put it, "Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them all in.""
"Decisions about animal well-being and housing should be determined by those who understand the animals and work with them every day," Hill said. "We urge Gov. Christie to veto this legislation and allow farmers and veterinarians to decide the best way to care for their animals."
NPPC said "few, if any, of New Jersey's small number of hog producers use gestation stalls." The bill sent to Christie "is a solution in search of a problem," said NPPC president-elect Dr. Howard Hill at Iowa Select Farms
